Thanks for the reply! Im actually going to be abroad for a year and was purchasing a few ounces (maybe 3.5 ounces in total) from various people and Im hoping thatll last me a while haha
Sorry if this isnt allowed, dont mean for this to be disrespectful either, but is anyone selling an SFRB on the cheaper end ($15 lower), dont have too much money rn sadly but would like to dive into the world of hot peppers!
I dont have compost on hand so would this work?: https://www.menards.com/main/outdoors/gardening/lawn-plant-care/compost-soils-amendments/mushroom-compost-75-cu-ft/2667816/p-1444449052375-c-1463608034794.htm?tid=4656161425491338256&ipos=1
Also, do you think it would smell at all if I keep it...
I was thinking, is it possible to only use peat moss (maybe mixed in with Miracle Gro potting mix), as a medium for smaller pepper plants? My thinking was that I'll move the germinated seeds from the condiment cups/ziplock bags to solo cups filled with peat moss. I'll be using the double cup...
Will do!
Also last question, when do you transplant them? When they start rooting a bit, or do you wait a while after until they start growing their first leaves? Would it be okay to directly put them into a double solo cup w/ ProMix then?
Got it, moved all the containers to a larger surface that is around 83-88. Left some of the bags in the incubator and moved one to a surface that is 85
Decided to test out three options:
1) I keep some Arthropods in an incubator so I put a couple ziplock baggies with seeds in there. Stays around 80-85
2) I put some condiment containers (3 with 5 seeds each) on top of my modem, this gets to around 110 max (is this too hot?)
3) I put some...
Thanks for the reply! I don't have the option of starting them in seed starting mix, only plastic baggie/condiment containers though. But your post did give me an idea about using a sterilite tub and then placing the plastic bags/condiment containers in it!
I'll try this as well!
Thanks for the reply! Sadly the top of my fridge isnt warm, tried checking the temp on it via a temp gun and its the same as other surfaces. So would something like this be fine...
Planning to start some seeds via the plastic baggie and condiment cup method. My question is, would a heat mat burn the seeds as theres no medium to protect it? Or will it be fine? Its not in the budget to get a thermostat, has anyone done this without a thermostat?
Looking for these seeds:
Aji Melocotan
Aji Lemon
Aji Pineapple
Aji Mango
Aji fantasy
Peach Sugar Rush
Cherio Roxa
Chinese 5 color
Fatalii Varieties
Let me know if you have these!
I'm not really talking about the sauce you need to get at the right pH, but more of the 'normal' ones that you just kind of 'throw' together. Does anyone store them in the freezer? If so, does it degrade the quality at all? Made an order for a bunch of peppers and was planning on making...
